The worsl enemy to increased
tire wear is incorrect pressure.
Inflating lires above recom-
mended pressure will cause
excessive wear in the centre of
thetireand give a burnpier ride.
Far worse, however, is under-
inflation. When air pressure is
less than recommended, flexing
in the sidewalls increases,
causing excessive heat build-up
and possibly a blow-out. A
handy pocket tire guage is the
best way to ensure that tires are
properly inflated.

Guaranlees and warranties
have to be ‘checked carefully.
Some tires de not carry any;
others carry one based on time;
others on mileage.
